Part of a proper system setup anc change management is to limit who can use the START command, possibly what he/she can START and for sure who can apply changes to JCL the JCL (procedure) libraries in discussion. If this JCL could be modified by content of personal libryries, this would undermine the above. What hinders you to ask for the JCL (procedure) library to be added to IEFPDSI? Ask for it, expain your case. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
